Stitch along: Let’s celebrate the seasons with flowers!
Below is a basic outline of the project. Starting on the 1st September 2023.
Select 4 floral prints that represent the 4 seasons.. I’m starting with Spring but you can start as you wish! It maybe Autumn for you !
Cut each piece to size depending on how you wish to present them at the end. I plan to use a rolling pin .. rolling them up.. as the season finishes ! My floral panels are 11.5” tall x 8.5” wide
In my first video I show the 3 I have selected so far .. I’m still working on autumn, as I have not found something just perfect!
I then recommend a backing fabric to stabilise the pieces.. can be a long single strip or a piece cut for each panel of floral fabric. At a later date joined.
ADD IN’s
This is a list of items added to the piece to complete it.. these items can be gathered and set aside throughout the year ready to embellish your panels!
1. Add in a Critter.. select a bird or butterfly or bee or bug or animal that complements the piece ! Stitch it in!
2. Words .. add a phase or poem.. about the season. Can be stitched or added as a preprinted element..
3. Variety of threads and ribbons to embroider the flowers and critters…painting in threads
4. Background fabrics little bits to make your piece look textured .. linens .. ticking.. silks.. cheesecloth!!
5. Extras flowers.. fussy cut out extra flowers to add to your piece.. helps to create the extra texture.. bits for vintage doilies if they suit your panel. Pre-made flowers can be collaged into the panel
6. Lace bits to add even more texture. Used within flowers or used in the background.
7 and finally beads and sequins to give your piece bling.. old jewellery can also be used.
I plan to post the videos as needed within my current projects.. we have three months per season so plenty of time. There is no schedule to follow just the change of the season.

Thanks again everyone for joining me on this new adventure.
Lots of love Corrine
A lovely video. I thoroughly enjoy your stitching commentary☺️. You keep me in stitches (sorry for the pun)! I've giggled so many times! Thank you for making your videos an absolute delight and so "real"!! I especially enjoy your accent and expressions - could listen to you for hours! Am learning so much too! Many thanks🥰
Cute bird! Bec from sew be created has a good netting tutorial on her TH-cam channel. All of the USA has gone “gray crazy” - I am not a fan- I love pearl or beige neutrals or lots of color- all 4 of my kids did the gray thing- so boring! But that’s just me🌸
Thank you Corrine for your video and sharing your project with us. A lovely bird and he looks as if he has always been there. I hear you in the grey dilemma My friend has painted all her walls grey and it is so cold as it is very blue most of the time and purple in a hallway.She is out hunting for a warmer tone. As for thread I never bobinated but I have acquired some thread already on the bobbins if anyone is worried about the kinks just run the thread over a damp sponge and they disappear. Great tip from Jean Farish an expert in the cross stitch world .Can't claim that as mine. A piece of sponge in a little plastic container, really works.
Aviary Birds Fabric Beige from Stitch & Sparkle RTC Fabrics ....... It's not longer available. I googled it with the image.
Brilliant thanks
.Evelyn as always 😊
Wondering what # your threads are? Sage greens are hard for me to find. Thank you! I love your channel❤l❤❤❤❤❤❤
They range from perle cotton, stranded cotton and wool.
And everything in between! Try them all. Yeah I struggle with sage green too.
Looks wonderful, thank you for showing us the close up of the branch at the end such delicate detail. I forget about weaving stitches when I use this I love so must try and remember this stitch more often, love the texture it makes. Bird is perfect looks like it was always there. Thank you for another wonderful video.
You are so welcome!
Beautiful 👍🧡
Great 🥰
It is the best glue
I use two Art glitter glue with the nib.. fine work (scrapbook supplier should have it ) and Blue glue stick (stationary or officeworks in Aust ) the blue within it helps you see where you have applied it.
If you ever do remember where you got that fabric, I would love to know!! It’s absolutely gorgeous!!!! 🤩♥️💕🤩
I purchased it from a seller of 2nd fabric. I believe she has from packs left. vintageblendstudio.bigcartel.com/product/florals-seasons-pack-2

@@ariadneferreira2252 I do to but I’m not sure if you’ll find it. If you do let me know please
@@Sewbits will do! I have been looking and can’t find it anywhere for sale online. There were a couple Etsy shops who were sold out of it, so I emailed them and asked if they will get more. When they reply, I will let you know!
You are so talented!!! I recently have found your channel and have enjoyed your videos day by day, seeing your progress and what you are making! You inspire me! ♥️♥️♥️
